Dub Narcotic Sound System
Dub Narcotic Sound System is a lo-fi, funk-infused indie band from Olympia, Washington, founded by Calvin Johnson, the influential musician and founder of K Records. Known for their genre-blending sound that mixes elements of dub, punk, hip-hop, and soul, the group emerged in the 1990s as part of the DIY indie scene that K Records helped foster. Their raw, danceable grooves and minimalist production became a key part of the label's aesthetic.
Calvin Johnson’s deep, distinctive vocals front the band’s often experimental tracks, which embrace a stripped-down, analog vibe. Dub Narcotic Sound System has shared bills with like-minded indie and punk acts and has built a reputation for their quirky live performances. The band’s name is both a nod to their dub influences and the basement studio—Dub Narcotic Studio—where much of their music was recorded.
